mit Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 (edited) I think you're the only person who doesn't call it a flash, Gaz. And I think the only reason you're not calling it a flash is to be pedantic for the sake of being a pedant, and also not to contradict your previous post Samsung Galaxy Camera: http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/mobile-devices/galaxy-camera/galaxy-camera/EK-GC100ZWABTU Sony Xperia Z1: http://www.t3.com/reviews/sony-xperia-z1-review iPhone 5S info: http://techcrunch.com/2013/09/12/a-photographers-take-on-the-iphone-5s-camera/ Edited September 13, 2013 by mit mneth1986 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz 330 Cs Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 No, nothing to do at all with being pedantic. My original post referred to phone cameras with a proper xenon flash, not an LED flash. Like so http://www.s21.com/sony-ericsson-k800i.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonsufc Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 I'm just biding my time waiting for one of the big manufactures to announce they have developed a battery that can actual last a full day. I don't want a better camera, bigger screen etc. I just want a better battery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want a better camera, bigger screen etc. I just want a better battery! IIRC the HTC One has a 2250mAh battery, I also have a piggy back pack case with another 3800mAh to strap into it when a charger is not handy, more than enough for a day. The samsungs and other models you can swap out batteries as well which you can't with the iPhone sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true, if you could swap the iPhone battery that would be a solution but they don't make it easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Mark Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 (edited) I have to say that case I have for mine with the 3800mAh battery built in is a very sweet sollution if you know you have a heavy phone day ahead of you, doesn't detract from the phone that much either, takes about 1 second to put it into the case or remove it as well. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321180748278?var=510144592172&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 EDIT: I just noticed they do a similar product for the iPhone it seems, bonus all round Edited September 14, 2013 by Phantom Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz 330 Cs Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 My Note 2 had a 3100m/a and lasted all day no problem with a good bit of use, although everyone's idea of "good use" will differ. feva 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My work note 2 last 3 days unless you use it then I'm lucky to get 10 hours from it. Back on topic has anyone done the sums what's the best way to get a 5S outright & giffgaff etc sim or contract? Is 4g even available on Payg?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz 330 Cs Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 Just quickly, I bought one of these a while back for a fiver delivered. Most useful and will charge from 10% to Full in around an hour. And these are a good buy too if you find yourself low on battery with no chargers etc. 12000m/a for around £20. Good for umpteen full charges Blair and mit 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naf536 Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 I think I am going to hold off getting the 5S, already have a 5 and the fingerprint sensor doesn't excite me too much, will probably wait for the 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F07GT Steve Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 I updated my 5 last night, now running the IOS 7.0, it took a little bit to get used to it but its a lot better, it's a bit different but i can live with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich_D Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Yet another con product from Apple. Latest updates are naff from what i here. Ill stick with my S4 By 'latest updates' do you mean the hardware or the software? The 5C is a bit naff, as it's just a 5 in a coloured frock, but the 5S is a nice bit of kit, as for iOS7 I updated last night and I like it, definitely a more Android like feel to it.

bungers Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Apple have pissed me off with their ordering system for the 5S; in previous years I have had the latest phone delivered to my door on the day of release, now I've had to wait until sometime in October because I didn't want to camp outside one of their shops FFS.

Adrianc333 Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) No camping needed here. I walked into Carphonewarehouse in Meadowhall (huge shopping centre), at 9am-ish and it was empty! I was the first customer of the day, and nobody else came into the shop whilst I was there. (half hour) I expected a mad rush but nope. I walked past the Apple shop on the way, and there was about a dozen people milling about.

mit Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 From what I've heard, apart from the flagship stores they are pretty easily available. I have half a mind to get one but don't feel an urgent need to splurge out £700. That's better used going towards my mortgage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
